A Vista of flagellating microserfs

Posted on September 25, 2005

Microsoft is very late with LonghornVista, again, and hope to
deliver it late next year by removing all the interesting new
things and focus on the easy stuff like implementing Microsoft
“innovation” like Dashboard —
pretty and useless.

In the process heads rolled they reorganized and started from
scratch with a lean and clean code base, and sold that to the media as a
great victory, and The Wall Street Journal lick it
up, while The Register is somewhat more realistic.
